[oe] Fix for arfile.py to handle six digit UIDs

[Scott Anderson]

Hi all,

I also ran into the problem described by Blaine Kubesh here: http://lists.linuxtogo.org/pipermail/openembedded-users/2010-March/001068.html

Essentially, the problem is that arfile.py is splitting the ar header with white-space instead of fixed-width fields, so two fields would get treated as a single field.  Now I'm far from a expert in Python, git, bitbake or OpenEmbedded (among many other things, frankly), but I believe the attached patch is an improvement over the status quo, as it honors the fixed field widths.

Thanks (especially to Tom Rini for pointing me in the right direction),
  SAA
